I went to the dentist for a cleaning and he convinced me to have my 4 wisdom teeth removed. I’m afraid I won’t survive

Just got mine done yesterday. Easy to do. It was just freezing so I was awake the whole time - sent home with painkillers and antibiotic. Next day feel sore but not in pain.

Why is it a scam? For dentists to make money? I had mine removed in January and insurance covered most of it. Easy enough in the chair and minimal pain afterward.

In many cases it’s an elective surgery that dentists portray as necessary. Yes, it makes them money. Sometimes it’s needed, but that’s a subset of the cases where they’re removed today

I spent the first few years out of school working in music before getting into advertising as an account person. Quickly realized it wasn’t for me. Busted my ass working with the creatives on the side until I was able to build a decent enough portfolio for an agency to take a chance on me as a full time CW. I think I’ll be a Senior CW soon, but it feels like most folks my age (30) have been in that role for a bit or already past it. Since I can’t turn back time, any tips for catching up?

Any cologne recommendations? M24, gay, infp. Just moved to NYC and looking for new scent, mainly for symphony concerts. Something sophisticated and cultured, yet assuringly down to earth and humble, but mysterious and romantic, and appropriate for nights at the symphony or opera - meaning suitable for more formal spaces, mindful of people around me, mature but doesn't take itself too seriously, and works well on different outfits whether I'm wearing polo shirt, button down, or a suit. Thoughts?
